What are the Next Steps? The upward trend for DERs and their potential impacts merits study, conversation and potential action. MISO will use its Explore, Decide, Do model, formally introduced in March 2019 MISO Forward Report, as a framework to set this examination into motion. MISO and OMS continue to host DER workshops to further conversations and discuss the questions posed in this report. By stakeholder request, it will also consider options that create enhancements to existing products and services in the DER realm. MISO will continue reliable delivery of low-cost energy, including a future where there are increasing numbers of DERs, while maintaining transparency with stakeholders. Visit MISO's stakeholder calendar for more information or to register for these workshops.
